Hi Douglas!

You always do such nice architectural work.  And these all live up to your 
standards.

However, we know Posy, but this is, I think, the first time we've seen Frauke.

Any chance we might "meet" her from less than 50 meters?

Glad you enjoyed Berlin.  Thanks for sharing a small bit of your trip! :-)  I, 
for one,  shall look forward to the rest!

David.
